Man Utd boss Moyes to start RvP against Shakhtar

Moyes is hopeful that van Persie will be restored to the starting line-up for the trip to Shakhtar Donetsk.

"I hope so. He has not missed an awful lot - his injury was a small injury but hopefully he will be back. Our plan was to get him some time today but maybe not as long as we put him on for. Fifteen-twenty minutes was the plan if we could."
